Do you reread books? If so, which one have you gone back to more than once?
I’m curious: do you reread books? And if so, which ones do you return to again and again? I’d love to build a list of those re-readable stories that people can’t help but revisit.
Pretty often if I love it. I reread every Harry Potter immediately after finishing each one. I do LOTR every so often(not every year like some people). A few of the Dark Tower series, especially 1 and 5, and a few other of King’s.

Yes often. Most read are Michael’s and Heyer and King.

I think I’ve read every book I’ve ever liked twice, but I’m in my 40’s and find books I’ve read 20 years ago and will read it again to measure my tastes and see if I still like it.
Many books I’ve read multiple times. I reread the “Doomsday Book” by Connie Willis most winters. I read the Broken Earth Series twice the first year I read them and I reread ASOIF over again as soon as I finished A Dance With Dragons the first time. East of Eden, Ethan Frome, Pride and Prejudice, Parable of the Sower, The Stand, and The Grapes of Wrath I’ve probably read ten times. Maybe I have a bad memory, but it feels like I’m just visiting old friends.
